Sup NS, I searchbarred and nothing came up, so I had a question.

So my parents are getting my sister and I one of these new "springfree" tramps. The deal is, obviously, they don't use springs, but instead some other way to make the bouncy effect. My question was, how is the quality and durability of these tramps compared to the spring ones?

Thanks, and answers get plus K!

I was on one last summer, and imo it doesn't bounce nearly as much as a normal trampoline.

not that bouncy, and you have to be centered on the trampoline when jumping to get air. still the safest tramp out there tho

well i mean no trampoline has zero risks, but the springless ones eliminate ricks many that other trampolines have

hahaha so ironic. I hated that tramp, even though I always hit it because it hat a net and was outside, and flybeds scare the shit out of me.

But yeah, not much bounce, you have to get double bounced to do any inverts at all, pretty much.

you have to get a spring tramp man, ive had mine for around 10-12 years and before that my cousin had it for about 5 years and its still bouncing just as high as when we first got it. those new "no spring" tramps are garbage, good for young kids but not for trying to learn flips and spins for skiing haha.

straight awful, if you live in a snowy area and you let snow stay on them, the bands will get stretched out and not reform to its regular shape.

Damn, i guess i will have to make the best out of it. Does anyone know if double bouncing will increase the bounce at all on these? And does it help if its a rectangular tramp?

it depends how heavy you are? i have springs and my mate has nosprings, and despite the no springs being less bouncy you can still flip and shit but i hit the ground really easily coz im like 100kg, but if you're smaller it will be allllgood
